Talking Watches With Spike Feresten

Ғылым және технология

If you know comedy or if you know cars, you know Spike Feresten. Spike has been a mainstay of the American comedy scene for upwards of two decades - getting his start as the receptionist at Saturday Night Live (where he earned the nickname "Spike") before becoming a regular writer for SNL, focusing heavily on the then Dennis Miller-hosted Weekend Update. He would go on to write for Late Night With David Letterman and eventually end up as the author of several of the most iconic episodes of the most iconic sitcom in history. I'm talking about Seinfeld, and Spike's episodes include "The Soup Nazi," "The Wig Master," and "The Muffin Tops," just to name a few. Like I said, iconic.

    Finally an episode with a regular guy who doesn't know everything and doesn't care. He just buys what he likes and I can relate to that. This is definitely in the top list of episodes.

    Brandon Rebuck I thought this episode was fantastic. He had a collection of watches that many would be within the reach of many of us, not just grail watches and unique pieces. Don't get me wrong, I love the John Goldberger's of this world but I thought this was very refreshing. As someone else said, he didn't know everything but didn't care.

    nickpap1 Other than the vintage Daytona I'm not into his collection. However, I love his passion for all of his watches. Why does everything have to be a dick measuring competition these days? I am fairly sure he has enough capital to have a box full of Lange, Patek or possibly GF duel tourbillons..... It's all about what makes each collector smile. Who gives a f*ck if he has a Nike?
